Chapter 317: The New Season Begins (Guaranteed 3rd Update)

There are people who live their whole lives and do nothing.

And some people, even if they are young, are already top-notch in terms of ability......

Obviously, the Golden Dragon is the latter kind of person, and when Richard returned to Portland, it took him less than three days to help Richard get everything done.

A total of 4,000 square meters of manor villas in the suburbs of Portland, ten maids from all over the world, professional housekeepers hired from the United Kingdom, and Chinese governess who graduated from Harvard University.

As Richard demanded, all the most expensive and the best!

As soon as she got off the bus, Erya was stunned by the scene in front of her, full of rose gardens and towering tropical ornamental trees.

Portland is also known as the City of Roses, and there are no other flowers in this place, but there are many roses......

"Lee, how's that?" The golden dragon asked with a smile.

"How? Erya, do you like it or not? Richard leaned down and asked Erya softly.

"Like! I like it so much, it looks like it's on TV, no, there's no such a nice house on TV! ”

"Why don't you call me by my name? Have I changed my name to Wang Wenwen now? ”

Erya tilted her head and asked Richard curiously.

Richard nodded, "That's right, you will be called Wang Wenwen in the future, this is our home!" ”

"Golden Dragon, the house is good, thank you for your hard work!"

Erya was very satisfied, Richard was naturally satisfied, in fact, he was also surprised to see such a luxurious manor villa.

"It's not hard, the main thing is that you are in a hurry, if you are not in a hurry, there is also a large manor of 10,000 square meters......" Golden Dragon said with a smile.

"By the way, who is this?"

The golden dragon was a little puzzled, he hadn't heard that Richard had a child, how could he go back to the country, and suddenly brought back a little girl.

"It's ......"

"Dazhi's sister happened to come to the United States to go to school, and Dazhi played ball every day and didn't have time to take care of it, so let me take care of it!" Richard explained slightly.

After all, Richard is also a public figure now, and if he rashly has an extra child, there will definitely be media who will track and report it.

I don't know what kind of plot some of these shameless tabloids will invent......

So Richard has to be a little more careful in this regard.

The golden dragon nodded, he must have felt doubts in his heart, with his understanding of Richard, these things must have been purchased for this black and thin little girl.

Although Richard has a very good relationship with his disciples and is as close as family, it is common sense that there is no need to buy such a luxurious thing......

But even if he had doubts in his heart, the golden dragon was also interested and didn't ask much.

……

Now that Er Ya has received his side, Richard has one of the biggest concerns.

School is definitely going to school, which is why Richard hired a tutor.

At present, Erya can't speak English at all, so she can only stay at home now, learn English hard, and wait for the English to pass, and then send her to school to go to school normally.

It is Richard's habit to call Erya, even if he was seventy or eighty years old in his previous life, when the children were not in front of him, Richard also shouted Erya Erya.

The habits of the past few decades can be changed wherever they are said......

"Don't call Erya, if you don't call Wang Wenwen, you can call me endy, the English name the teacher gave me!"

"Okay, Erya!"

"You ......"

After living in the manor, Erya has a much more cheerful personality, but sometimes when she thinks of the past, she still loses her mind in a daze, which makes Richard feel distressed.

At the moment, Richard actually can't say what kind of emotion he has for Erya.

That kind of feeling? It's completely impossible, Richard hasn't gotten to that point, although this is really his daughter-in-law, but the age is there......

It's more about the feeling of family.

……

A few months have passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Richard took Erya out shopping and watching movies, and was photographed by the media several times, just when the media speculated about the relationship between this little girl who appeared out of thin air and Richard......

Dazhi let out a rumor that this little girl was his sister, and he didn't have time to take care of it because of playing, so he asked Richard to help take care of it.

This can be regarded as a complete solution to the identity problem of Erya, and the media finally reported that Richard was affectionate and righteous, and treated his disciples like family, and then there was nothing to do.

……

Two days before Christmas, Stern issued an ultimatum that if he didn't reach an agreement before January 7, he would cancel the season altogether!

In this way, the two sides finally really sat down and began to negotiate, and finally both sides gave in and reached a final agreement.

In fact, speaking of which, it is still the players' union that suffers, because the salary cap has not been raised much, only a mere three million dollars, and whether high school players can directly enter the league or not has much to do with them, anyway, it will not affect them to make money......

And the maximum salary regulations that they resolutely resisted were negotiated by the other party.

So on the whole, it is the management committee and the boss's side that have the advantage in the negotiations!

Now that the negotiations have been negotiated, the new season must start quickly, and if you play one less game, how much money will you have to lose!

On January 15th, the pre-season of the NBA1998-1999 season officially began!

Or simply the 1999 season, after all, this season did not play a single game in '98......

It's also strange to say, Richard originally thought that the preseason would be canceled directly and go directly to the regular season, but Stern obviously didn't think so, he not only wanted to do preseason, but also did a lot of foreign preseason.

For example, this year, the Magic, Nets, Kings and Timberwolves played two preseason games in Tokyo, Japan......

……

A week before the preseason schedule begins, the players are already gathering in Portland for a final training camp in preparation for the new season.

I haven't seen him for a few months, and Richard can clearly feel that the group of players under his command has changed a lot, which is not a rebirth, but I am afraid that the strength has improved again!

The biggest surprise to Richard is that the five newcomers, who were originally reserved and shy, have now let go of a lot in the team, and have already mingled with some old players such as Big Ben.

Such a scene naturally made Richard very happy.

Sometimes the atmosphere in the dressing room can have a pretty big impact on the overall quality of the team.

Maybe the original strength of the team, because the locker room atmosphere is good, the players are united, they can play more than ten percent of the strength.

It may also be that the super strong team that was originally ten percent of the league champions, because of the bad atmosphere in the locker room, they can only play six or seven percent of their strength.

Such examples are not seen many times in the history of the NBA.

Now the pioneers are a bunch of young people, and they all have a common language.

There are no players in the team who rely on the old and sell the old, and the two veterans are quite Buddhist players, and it is unlikely that they will rely on the old and sell the old in front of the newcomers.
